Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency
by Douglas Adams | Buy this book
This book and the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy are what I turn to when I need a book to make me smile. It is effortlessly funny and tells a compelling mystery that only gains value on a reread.

Emma J (Witney)

I am a fan of historical fiction and books on social commentary. I'm not keen on crime, fantasy and/or romance novels ("penny dreadfuls"). I'm a middle-aged feminist, supportive of the exploration of EDI issues, particularly relating to mental health, the menopause, maternal separation and the LGBTQAIP+ community. I am a keen reader but I live on my own so would like the opportunity to engage with others on topics that are important to our society. I am currently reading, "Henry VIII, The Heart & The Crown" by Alison Weir and "The Art of Thinking Clearly" by Rolf Dobelli.

confessions of a forty-something f##k up
by Potter, Alexandra | Buy this book
Told from a woman's perspective this is light-hearted, funny and deeply serious, all at the same time. As a 40-something f##k up, I found this extremely relatable. It's a fictional novel but it could just as easily be classed as a self-help book and it really helped my understand that I'm not a f##k up, I'm human and there is no text book for life. A very refreshing and uplifting read.

Danielle (Billingshurst)

Hi, I’m looking for a book club that runs properly. I started one in billi a month ago and I’ve been trying to get suggestions that’s “don’t mind” to everything and people who said they were interested didn’t show. So I gave up on that. I’m 34, studying health and social care, I’d love to meet new people! Make new friends and a reason to actually finish a book. I like reading thrillers mainly and some non fiction that’s health related, but some pretty random ones in between

The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths
The Crossing Places
by Elly Griffiths | Buy this book
The first of the Dr Ruth Galloway and Inspector Harry Nelson range of crime fiction books. Full of family drama, forensic archeology, crime solving, romance and more! Set in Norfolk... and so the relatively local connection makes it all the more interesting.

Steve (Stowmarket)

Hello everyone. I began reading fiction again a few years ago, and became hooked on the Inspector Rebus (Ian Rankin) and the Dr Ruth Galloway (Elly Griffiths) series of books. But I really ought to expand my reading, and would love to discuss 'good-reads' with other people. I understand that the Stowmarket Book Club (Stowmarket Library) currently has no vacancies though.

Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
Nineteen Eighty-Four
by George Orwell | Buy this book
Eerily reminiscent of our current times... Powerful read, harrowing ending. Focuses on the pressures society has on an individual and the persistent and how free will and thought can be malleated and forgotten. Quite popular for a reason - if you have not read already, read!

Jojo (Oxford)

Used to belong to an amazing independent book club which totally broadened my genres and books that I would have been ignored. Love fiction but not a fan of science fiction or fantasy. I am an avid reader and miss a local gathering to discuss a chosen book.
